Ke Xuezhuo's son-in-law

Chapter 164 It’s cool to be the daughter of a chaebol

Wednesday, December 12
  On Christmas Day, Yuanzi wandered the streets with Xiaolan and Conan, and finally stopped in front of a billboard to rest.

Yuanzi looked at the bustling crowd on the street, and then at the two people beside her. An inexplicable sense of sadness came to her heart. Why did other people have couples to accompany them on Christmas, but she only had these two...

"Ah! Why is it that on such a wonderful Christmas, I am surrounded by the two of you."

Xiaolan laughed and comforted her friend, but Conan complained that Yuanzi often said that she was lonely.

(If you put away that nymphomaniac look and pretend to be a lady, there won’t be anyone chasing you, right?)

At the same time, Conan was also complaining, why are these two people next to him on Christmas?
  Every time there was a New Year or a holiday, he would think of his careless parents, whose son had been missing for so many days without even calling to ask what was going on. (Although he didn't fight himself), Conan wasn't going to tell them about the shrinkage yet. Just when he was thinking about how to fool his parents, Sonoko's next words made him nervous.

"By the way, where's Shinichi? Didn't that guy come to spend the holidays with you?"

"Shinichi..."

Recalling that during this period of time, there was no such presence around them.

Seeing that his friend fell silent, Sonoko continued, "Isn't it because he hasn't come to see you?"

The existence of Kudo Shinichi has special meaning to both of them. He is not only Xiaolan's childhood sweetheart, but also Sonoko's childhood sweetheart in a sense.

"No, he talked to me on the phone before and said that he was out of town investigating a case and couldn't come back..."

"You don't believe it, do you? That stinky detective must be deceiving you again."

Every time she thinks of that guy leaving Xiaolan and running away, Sonoko gets inexplicably angry. Although she won't arrange a new date for Xiaolan, Sonoko also wants to make Kudo Shinichi unhappy and make him realize the sense of crisis and come back quickly. .

"How could there be such a person? Today is the annual Christmas! I think he is just pretending."

"Don't say that, Sonoko. Although Shinichi likes to put on pretense and is full of clever ideas, he still has many advantages..."

Seeing that Xiaolan understood him so well, Conan felt incredible.

Xiaolan changed the topic and started asking about Yuanzi's situation.

"By the way, Sonoko, how are you and Brother Xinghai doing? Is there any progress?"

It is no secret that Sonoko likes Fujiwara Hoshikai. Ever since Xiaolan introduced the two of them to each other, Xiaolan learned from Sonoko that she had fallen in love with Brother Hoshikai.

"Oh, with him..." Yuanzi thought of the man who had recently said that he had been very busy and had no interest in going out with him. He gradually gave up the idea of ​​pursuing him like that at the beginning. Rather than being embarrassed by not being able to pursue him, it is better to be a friend. Stay presentable.

So Sonoko imitated Fujiwara Hoshikai's taste and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Sonoko, I've been very busy recently. I'm afraid I don't have time to agree to your request. Why don't you make an appointment with Xiaolan or someone else..."

Xiaolan and Conan looked at each other in inexplicable embarrassment. Although Sonoko was very similar, Fujiwara Xinghai was indeed very busy during the recent period, running to the office and the prosecutor's office every day to collect evidence for the case.

By chance, Xiaolan learned from Fei Yingli that Fujiwara had been busy for a week for a commission that was not well paid.

Even Conan had heard about this case of illegal enrollment. A few days ago, when he was visiting the mall with the detective team, he saw Xiaolan's mother and Fujiwara Hoshimi having an appointment with Xiaolan and their elementary school teacher for coffee in the mall. A scene of people talking about things in the library.

Although they were not close, he could still tell from their mouth movements that they were discussing the illegal enrollment of Abedo Elementary School, and Xiaolan's mother seemed to hope that the other party would testify in court.

"Is that so? I thought this was Master Xinghai's excuse to prevaricate me, but no matter what, I will never treat Master Xinghai as an object of pursuit in the future. He is as untouchable as Kid in my heart. exist……"

Sometimes it’s also very touching to appreciate things silently from a distance.

Yuanzi's sudden abandonment left Xiaolan and Conan a little confused. Xiaolan was curious about, "Who is this Kidd?"

Before she could explain her reasons for giving up, Sonoko brought out Tatsuya Kimura and announced that he was the one she admired.

"Tatsuya? Who is this?"

"Oh, that's Tatsuya Kimura, the lead singer of the most popular rock band Rex recently."

Conan thought she had met some new man, but after hearing about rock stars, she understood that Sonoko was chasing stars again, and she had not seriously thought about her love partner.

Sonoko held her hand over her heart and told how she was attracted by Kimura Tatsuya's singing and couldn't help but fall in love with this man... After hearing this, Xiaolan's eyes widened in the middle of the night, and an unnatural wry smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

(Another love at first sight story...)
  After Sonoko finished speaking, she said that she could drag her father into getting Tatsuya Kimura to sing with them.

"Let's sing K," Xiaolan thought for a while and felt that Yuanzi's proposal was not bad, "Okay, I also want to meet the popular group..."

Xiaolan was obviously moved, so Conan quickly asked Yuanzi to coquettishly say that he wanted to see it too.

"You want to go too?" Yuanzi thought for a while, stroking her chin, then snapped her fingers and agreed to her request.

"But you have to keep it secret from Shinichi for me. I can't bear it when he says that I took Xiaolan to date other men."

Conan: "...I promised Sonoko to keep Shinichi-san a secret."

(Thank you for your self-awareness...)
  The three of them walked around for a while, then took a taxi to send Conan to the Mori Office.

I happened to bump into Fujiwara Hoshiumi coming out of the Mori Detective Agency.

"Long time no see, Brother Xinghai!"

"Oh, long time no see, Miss Sonoko. Did you just come back from queuing?"

It was already approaching evening, and Fujiwara and Kogoro had just finished eating.

"No, the three of us just walked around casually today."

"Oh, okay. Sonoko and Xiaolan are changing colors and asking her to invite Fujiwara Hoshimi to join the queue next Sunday.

Xiao Lansui didn't understand why she didn't invite it herself, but she still followed her best friend's wishes and invited Fujihara to sing K with Tatsuya Kimura.

"Tatsuya? Are you the lead singer of that rock band?"

"Well, Rex is the lead singer, is Brother Xinghai also chasing stars?"

"Oh, no, but I've heard of him. Did you say next Sunday? OK, I'll be there."

"see you then."

"Well, see you then."

After saying goodbye, Yuanzi and Xiaolan got into a taxi and left the office.

On the way, Sonoko leaned her head against the car window and looked at Tokyo Tower and sighed, "I decided to change myself and pursue men seriously."

Hearing Yuanzi say that he should be serious, Xiaolan felt inexplicably suspicious.

"really?"

"Really, absolutely true."

"Chasing who?"

"Lord Xinghai."

"Didn't you give up?"

"I regret it. It's been a long time since I saw him and he secretly became handsome again."

"Yonzi, you..."

"Hey, Xiaolan, you will help me, right?"

Looking at the ever-changing garden, Xiaolan was overwhelmed and didn't know what to say.
